About Conference
As on today, for mechatronic systems, the main issue is no more how to implement a control system, but how to implement actuators and what is the energy source. The most advanced mechatronics systems are the well known camera autofocus system or camera anti-shake systems. With regards to energy sources of mechatronics systems, most of the applications presently use batteries. But there is a paradigm shift in this approach and now the concept is the energy harvesting, allowing transforming into electricity mechanical energy from shock, vibration, or thermal energy from thermal variation, and so on.
